The more I look into the stats for ships put up on D6 Holocron, the more I find that some of their stats make no sense. There are also other archives present like on rpggamer.org which sometimes makes sense.

So yah, what's going on D6 Holocron?

Can you give some specific examples? I'll be glad to go in and edit things as long as they don't go off the reservation(i.e. ships from WEG books).

Well there's just weird things (and I don't remember the originals so I don't know how off reservation things are)

1) I was wrong about the victory and I apologize, your site is the only one with stats on the Victory class in general. The only complaint I have is a 2D+2 damage battery does nothing to other capital ships at all.

2) The Hardcell class transport. Your listing gives it a bunch of big turbolasers

http://d6holocron.com/wiki/index.php?title=Techno_Union_Hardcell-class_Starship

enough that if these things took advantage of the upgrade rules that you really could do anything with them. Where as the wookipedia article

http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Hardcell-class_interstellar_transport

says these things have missiles and laser armament and aren't really suited for combat.

Do keep in mind that a lot of the entries in the Holocron are fan-created. The Hardcell I can agree with, but I also believe it to be a conversion from d20.

Yes, my research shows that it's a conversion from a fan-made d20 ship. I'm making some adjustments.

Right now, I've dumped the turbolasers. From what I've read, I can't justify them. The point defense lasers can remain and also double as primary armament. I'm thinking of putting about six laser cannons on it, but I think that's overdoing it.

Aah cool beans man thanks. I'm doing a lot of stuff in my game that requires me to format spaceship stuff. Do you need an extra keyboard in fiddling around with these statsheets?
